    Hi! dimgall.
    Your work is wonderful.
    Very beautiful!
    The design of the shield is also beautiful.
    A ground work is also given to the flank of the base.
    That's Good idea.

    Excellent metals. Your skincolors are also good. Nothing to wurry about.
    Basework tells the story.

    Nice work, I like the way the scenery comes down the side of the base. Achillies looks very defiant indeed.

    Dimitri,

    Very nice works on the flesh and your metals, you can add more shadows and lights at the back side of the red. I like the base a lot (where is the trunk?) and especially the shields!

    Many congrats bro,
